=== Reading Infrastructure === * Published Wikipedia Reading List browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox.[3] Safari extension to follow hopefully soon, but dealing with a cookie issue when "keep me logged in" is not used. * Updated various APIs (action=mobileview, /page/summary, /page/mobile-sections) to provide locally overwritten descriptions vs. the centrally stored ones in Wikidata.
